Not many know this next FACT. The United States started war with Iran in 1953, by Over throwing their government, trying to make it a westernized country. In 1979, Iranian students and militants took over the U.S. embassy there and took some people hostage. This is called "blowback" Blowback happens when a country is pissed off because another has done something wrong previously. The president of Iran, also has never said " I want to wipe Israel off the map" If you watch the C-SPAN live footage, they took it way out of context to make Iran seem evil. The president of Iran might be a wack-o but WE started the war and we need to leave them alone.
